Is it possible that we evolved from primordial ooze? Sure. But as of yet they haven't found the definitive missing link between apes and humans. For all we know an alien named "god" decided earth was his 10th grade science project and decided to play legos with DNA. He waited until the last night because he's a procrastinator (which could be the equivalent of 1 Gregorian calendar week to us) and ran out of ideas on what to do with the platypus. Sure .. that's possible too. There's less evidence to support it, but I can't exclude it either because Science cannot definitively say with 100% certainty that Humans evolved from apes.

Scientists know for 100% certainty that humans did NOT evolve from apes. Humans and modern day apes both evolved from common ape-like ancestors. And there are numerous skeletons in museums of human ancestors and other related hominids from the recent and not so recent past. Not to mention all the DNA and mountains of other evidence. A quick look at a chimpanzee and of yourself in the mirror and you'd be insane not to think you were related.
